Successful pregnancy following allogeneic bone marrow transplantation after conditioning by thoraco-abdominal irradiation

A 26-year-old woman delivered a normal child 5 years after bone marrow transplantation for severe aplastic anemia. The conditioning regimen comprised high dose cyclophosphamide and thoraco-abdominal irradiation (6 Gy). This and two previous cases demonstrate that normal pregnancy can follow total body or thoracoabdominal irradiation.
